Mindfulness is gaining a growing popularity as a practice in daily life, apart from buddhist insight meditation and its application in clinical psychology. Mindfulness may be seen as a mode of being, and can be practiced outside a formal setting.
By Steve Henwood: "This video explains Gurdjieff & Ouspensky's concepts of identification and non-identification. It suggests that we are hypnotized by our stream of consciousness to such an extent that we were are asleep and dreaming, but that it is possible to be more aware and to wake up. The video shows that frequent cognitive reframing is required because of the inherent limitations of our brain and consciousness. Stress reduction and creativity are the outcomes of learning about this technique. To get the most out of this video, it is a good idea to pause frequently to reflect upon and ponder what you have just seen and heard."

Mindfulness is the practice of bringing one's attention to the internal and external experiences occurring in the present moment, which can be developed through the practice of meditation. The term "mindfulness" is a translation of the Pali-term sati, which is a significant element of some Buddhist traditions. The popular mindfulness movement was initiated by Jon Kabat-Zinn.
Large population-based research studies have indicated that the practice of mindfulness is strongly correlated with well-being and perceived health. Studies have also shown that rumination and worry contribute to mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety, and that mindfulness-based interventions are effective in the reduction of both rumination and worry. Clinical psychology and psychiatry since the 1970s have developed a number of therapeutic applications based on mindfulness for helping people who are experiencing a variety of psychological conditions. Mindfulness practice is being employed in psychology to alleviate a variety of mental and physical conditions, such as bringing about reductions in depression symptoms, reducing stress, anxiety, and in the treatment of drug addiction. It has gained worldwide popularity as a distinctive method to handle emotions.
